Ooh that's tough. Solarpunk and hightech don't mix!

For consolation:

Book: Aldous Huxley, Island (Rumor has it Leo Dicaprio is adapting it)

Anime: Nausicaa

Like Gibson would say, solarpunk is already here: https://youtu.be/JAobfMSX9dg

(That's the plane from Nausicaa)

There's also the Chobani ad

(Not usually thought of as such, but Neal Stephenson's Diamond Age is solarpunk in my book-- and pays direct homage to Ralph Merkle!!)

Edit: tangential to oncular comment, Switzerland (& Slovenia btw) seems kinda solarpunk to me
